We’ll all have good times and challenging times. Everyone that shines a light on your journey through life plays a part in shaping you. We learn from every experience whether good or bad and happy or sad. Some of the worst experiences I have had, have made me more resilient than those good experiences. I once got sacked from a dead end job, for attending a funeral. I was bitter at the time, but frankly, that businesses abysmal decision, provided me with a career opportunity. So if you can, tip yer hat to everyone that has made you, into you. Even the ar$h~~~~.

Embrace the Wonder

Lend me a pen, to allow me to scribe, the words on my mind,

on the hills that I’ve climbed, through the journey.

Grant me good grace to share a compassionate view, with those that divide

and those that decide, as they conquer.

Deliver the shade to let me encounter both triumph and plight, whether

wrong or right, on this saunter.

Afford me fleetness of foot, to tread lightly, where fragility lies and disdain

flies high, as I dauner.

Provide me the stage to dream big, and dream wide, inspire in kind, seek

pleasure with pride, and embrace wonder.

On my last stride, let me touch the shoulders of those that shone me with

light, whether faint or bright, on the hills, I’ve scaled on this journey.
